Hello World

Well its official, I am a Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner! My last day at Riley as an RN was sadly this month. Although, this is not the end of my Riley journey because I will be continuing on there in my new role! I am going to miss all of my amazing co-workers, especially my weekend crew! So much has happened in a year. I finally feel like I am exactly where I am supposed to be in life.

Graduation Day! My sister and Cody flew in from Texas to be there for my big day!

Adam and I learned that all of the happiness and success we were experiencing was going to get better!!

We are having a baby!! Baby Z will be here January 11, 2014

8 Weeks

13 Weeks

18 Weeks

That is my update for now!! We do not know if the baby is a boy or girl yet. I am thinking boy. We find out August 29th!! I start my new job Monday!! Happy weekend everyone!!

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

Hello!! Another semester has begun. I keep hearing the song crazy train in my head all the time. It must be the theme song for my semester. Adam and I will both be in school this semester. It will be a busy house of homework, work, and healthy meals on the go.  On Mondays, every other Thursday, and Friday I will have clinical at the doctors office. On Tuesdays and the Thursdays I'm not at the doctors office I will have class. Then I work every Saturday/Sunday. (Don't forget I have homework on top of this)

We were invited to 10, yes 10, weddings this year. If we can not make it I am sorry, this is just a crazy time in our lives!! I just feel like I am getting a lot of pressure from family and friends to meet their expectations and participate in these important events. Please understand that I have been working on this since preschool and I am so close to being done.

I promise I will be a better friend, wife, nurse, daughter when this is over!!

I can not wait for fall!! Pumpkin spice lattes and apple cider! One of my favorite times of the year!! Anyway I hope you guys all have a great September!!

I have missed you

Hello! Finals are over!! I do not go back to school until August 21st. There are still no grades. This semester has been the most difficult semester by far. I hear it is only going to get harder. I drop down to 2 12's a week August 12th to make time for my 12 credit hours, and 16 clinical hours, and homework. I get 4 weeks off (kind of)! We have done so much this summer!! We extended the deck and did some landscaping. We actually have grass in the back yard!! Yay!!

My sister in law Beth and sweet nephew and her husband moved to Pittsburgh. My sweet niece Emma is getting so big.

I only have 10 months of school left (297 days). Only 42 more saturday/sundays I have to work!

We have baby birds!!
